Can you submit CommonApp applications without your counselor having verified your fee waiver yet?

Hey guys! Wondering if anyone has an answer to this question… I just got accepted for reduced lunch and have since filled out an application for fee waivers (as that is one of the qualifying factors). On CommonApp, I checked the box that says I think I qualify for fee waivers and it sent the fee waiver verification thing to my counselor. My counselor has said she is not working on college application stuff until the first 10 days of school are over. Is it possible to submit your application on CommonApp without your counselor having verified your fee waiver request yet? And is there any chance she could deny my request if I have reduced lunch?

Bump.

I know this is an old post but did you get the fee waiver without getting the counselors approval? Also, congrats on getting into UNC. That is awesome!

Yes, I was able to submit my applications without her first having approved the fee waiver. She then approved the fee waiver after she submitted her recommendation. And thanks @slngbld !
